Cracow Niggun, attributed to Shlomo Carlebach

Brucha at Shekhina (Blessed are you, divine presence throughout the physical world) who grounds me
Brucha at Shekhinah who reminds me that I know
Brucha at Shekhinah who guides me
Brucha at Shekhinah who gives me courage to let go
Brucha at Shekhinah ruach ha'olam hameikhinah mitzadei isha
(Blessed are you, Shekhina, spirit of the universe, who makes firm a woman's steps)
-Ri J. Turner

Aramaic: Babylonian Talmud 
English: Rabbi Shefa Gold, www.RabbiShefaGold.com

lyrics
בריך רחמנא 
מלכא דעלמא 
מריה דהאי פיתא 

Brikh raḥamana 
Malka d'alma 
Ma'arey d'hi (oh!) pita 

You are the source of 
Life for all that is 
And your blessing 
Flows through me

Oh lord prepare me
To be a sanctuary
Pure and holy, tried and true
And with thanksgiving, I'll be a living
Sanctuary for you

Oh lord prepare me
To be a revolutionary
Bold and tender, tried and true
And with each other, 
We'll build another
World together
For me and you

(bonus verse written by iris brilliant, andrew meeker, sarah abbott, margot seigle & becky jones, with edits from Aly Halpert / summer 2015)

Sosne Nign by Jonah Meadows Adels z''l (recorded by Hebrew College)

Ladino Lullaby first sung to me by my father, David Migel Eyal Chai z'l.



Durme, durme hermosa donzella
durme, durme sin ansia y dolor

Heq tu amante (que) tanto dezea
ver tu sueño con grande amor

Hay dos años que sufre mi alma
por ti, joya, mi linda dama

Siente, siente al son de mi guitarra
siente, hermosa, mis males cantar

Sleep now, beautiful maiden.
Sleep with neither anxiety nor pain.

I am your lover, wishing only to see you dream,
watching with great love.

For two years my soul has suffered
For you, my jewel, my beautiful lady

Listen, song of my guitar
Listen, my lady, to my sad song

Sleep now, beautiful maiden.
Sleep with neither anxiety nor pain.

Durme Durme with Arielle Rivera Korman and Noam Lerman

A scrappy recording of this original nigun, recorded at Linke Fligl Sukkos in 2018.
